          @ana Actually, speaking of malls, I'm surprised these corpo nerds aren't buying out current, abandoned or demolished malls to make data centers instead of wasting resources to create new data centers.

                    @ana who actually owns the data in the center? artists? #artist #art

                    The term datacenter implies that the data is actually the most valuable part about it; a fitting observation imo.

                          @mast0d0nphan @ana I'd guess it's chiefly a ventilation issue. Given how stuffy the air inside them can be ordinarily, I can't imagine that cooling computers in them would be easy!

                            ...now that I think about it that's perfect for AI generated bs. Looks good, feels off and gross in a way I can't articulate.

                                @mast0d0nphan @ana there's nothing worth reusing in a mall. Data centers have racks of heavy equipment inside and generally heavy cooling setups on the roof, too. Mall construction isn't rated for that. Cheaper and less risk to demolish and build to spec than to retrofit. Nobody wants to fry millions of dollars in server hardware because the retrofitted mall roof leaked.

                                The site is flat, but unless you get lucky it probably has none of the other things you'd want (like proximity to big power lines or network backbones).

                                    @mast0d0nphan @ana probably cheaper & easier to build from scratch, rather than modifying existing buildings

                                    and also why they don't build vertically, instead of spreading out the slop box till its the size of Manhattan

                                          @ana Because you can enter a mall and peek at the rubbish, before you buy it. While with "AI" datacenters the slop is randomly mixed by some algorithm before it's sold as gold.
